EXCLUSIVE: The Forge has acquired North American rights to Guan Hu‘s drama Black Dog, along with worldwide rights to Alison Tavel‘s documentary Resynator, slating both acclaimed features for release in theaters in the fourth quarter of this year.
Winning the Un Certain Regard prize in its premiere at this year’s Cannes Film Festival, Black Dog takes place on the edge of the Gobi desert in Northwest China, watching as Lang (Eddie Peng) returns to his hometown after being released from jail.
While working for the local dog patrol team to clear the town of stray dogs before the Beijing Olympics, he strikes up an unlikely connection with a black dog; two lonely outcasts finding purpose in each other.
Released theatrically last month in China, the film grossed over $2.4M in just two days at the box office. The winner of the Audience Award for Best Documentary Feature at SXSW 2024, Resynator‘s story is thrust into motion when inventor Don Tavel dies in a car crash in 1988, with his daughter Alison just 10 weeks old.
